Pros and Cons

The Blank is nice, slightly heavier than expected. The guides could be much smaller to make for a clean presentation. I even suggest mini guides. overall it's a nice blank and handle otherwise. i wish there was a way i could change guides on mine...

Hi Moe, thank you for your detailed feedback! We're glad you like the blank and handle. Your suggestions about smaller guides are helpful, and we'll pass them along to our team. If you need any assistance with customizing your rod, feel free to reach out!
